WHAT’S THE FIRST RECORD YOU EVER BOUGHT?

Being raised in a very musical family and my older brothers being hooked on progressive and classical rock, one of the first records I bought was ‘Come Hell or High Water’. I was 8 or 9 years old at that time.

THE FIRST TIME YOU REMEMBER HEARING ELECTRONIC MUSIC?

The first time I listened to electronic music it was psytrance and goa trance but I didn’t quite understand it. I think it was Dragonfly.

But the first time I actually enjoyed it I was 12 years old and it was Paul Van Dyk’s masterpiece album ‘Out There and Back’ and James Lavelle’s ‘Global Underground#23: Barcelona’. My brother was driving me to a snowboard session in the mountains and it was in his Audi A3 car, we listened to both albums on the way up and it was some breaks madness!

YOUR FAVOURITE EVER RECORD?

Hats off to one of the best hip-hop albums of all times: IAM – ‘l’Ecole du micro d’argent’. Partly produced by RZA from Wu-Tang-Clan
